I have a little shoe dillemma. I am running low on the funds because im 17 and I have a trip to Europe I am saving for over the summer, so almost all of my paychecks go towards that... I work at a gym and I can get a pair of Anasazi velcros for about 85 bucks which is sweet, but still a bit pricey. I also am interested in the Mad Rock Locos, because I have heard nothing but good things about them from people who have them in my gym (those run for about 90 bucks). Finnally, I can get a pair of Sportiva Cobras for 55 bucks, an awesome deal. I have the cobras currently, and love everything about them... but they leave nast orange on my feet. This is not that important, but I thought id ask and see what everyone thinks. Oh, and feel free to comment on any suggestions about the orange (which I doubt there are b/c unless I wear socks they will probly still turn my feet orange...) Thanks!

In reply to: .... I have the cobras currently, and love everything about them...
I've tried many shoes and always end up going back to the one style that fits me best.

In all honesty, I think that you are splitting hairs. If you like your Cobras, stick with them.

If you want to go to europe, you might want to buy your shoes there, since they are generally (wich means: often, but not always) a bit cheaper than in the USA. You might want to look at some czech shoes (they are an the third page), are at some hot offers.
Could you tell me where you are going, i might could give you some more detailed tips.
If you dont want to wait for your trip, then get the cobras if they fit you, since 50 bucks is a nice price.

Try taking a shower with the shoes on. A guy I know had that same problem and that's what he did. But it got his shower dirty...
